Spin-down of the accreting magnetar candidate 4U 0114+65: possible first evidence for a strong coupling regime

Graciela Sanjurjo-Ferrín, Jose Miguel Torrejón, Konstantin Postnov +3

4U~0114+65 is a high-mass X-ray binary composed of the B1\,Ia supergiant V*~V662~Cas and one of the slowest known accreting neutron stars, with a spin period of 9.4 ks. In 20…

High-resolution X-ray spectroscopy of Cen X-3 with XMM-Newton

J. J. Rodes-Roca, J. M. Torrejón, G. Sanjurjo-Ferrín +1

The spectral analysis of two XMM-Newton observations of the high-mass X-ray binary system Cen X-3 is presented. In particular, it is focused on the eclipse and out-of-eclipse spect…

Cyclical accretion regime change in the slow X-ray pulsar 4U 0114+65 observed with Chandra

Graciela Sanjurjo-Ferrín, Jose Miguel Torrejón, Konstantin Postnov +5

4U 0114+65 is a high-mass X-ray binary system formed by the luminous supergiant B1Ia, known as V{*} V662 Cas, and one of the slowest rotating neutron stars (NS) with a spin period…

A Time-Dependent Spectral Analysis of Cassiopeiae

Sean J. Gunderson, David P. Huenemoerder, José M. Torrejón +7

We investigated the temporal and spectral features of Cassiopeiae's X-ray emission within the context of the white dwarf accretion hypothesis. We find that the variabilities pr…

GX 301-2 pre-periastron and apastron flares with MAXI

Á. Torregrosa, J. J. Rodes-Roca, J. M. Torrejón +4

The bright high-mass X-ray binary GX 301-2 exhibits two periodic flare episodes along its orbit which are produced when the neutron star is close to the apastron and periastron pas…

Revealing the state transition of Cen X-3 at high spectral resolution with Chandra

Graciela Sanjurjo-Ferrín, Jose Miguel Torrejón, Lida Oskinova +4

Cen X-3 is a compact, high-mass X-ray binary (HMXRB), likely powered by Roche lobe overflow. We present a phase-resolved X-ray spectral and timing analysis of a target of opportuni…

Multi-wavelength spectroscopic analysis of the ULX Holmberg II X-1 and its nebula suggests the presence of a heavy black hole accreting from a B-type donor

S. Reyero Serantes, L. Oskinova, W. -R. Hamann +11

Ultra-luminous X-ray sources (ULXs) are high-mass X-ray binaries with an X-ray luminosity above erg s. These ULXs can be powered by black holes that are more massi…

Phase-resolved spectroscopic analysis of the eclipsing black hole X-ray binary M33 X-7: System properties, accretion, and evolution

V. Ramachandran, L. M. Oskinova, W. -R. Hamann +10

M33 X-7 is the only known eclipsing black hole high mass X-ray binary. The system is reported to contain a very massive O supergiant donor and a massive black hole in a short orbit…

Cen x-3 as seen by MAXI during six years

Á. Torregrosa, J. J. Rodes-Roca, J. M. Torrejón +2

The aim of this work is to study both light curve and orbital phase spectroscopy of this source taking advantage of the MAXI/GSC observation strategy. We have investigated the spec…

The first X-ray spectrum of the HMXB XTE J1855-026 during the compact object eclipse

Graciela Sanjurjo-Ferrín, José Miguel Torrejón, José Joaquín Rodes-Roca

We present the first {\it XMM-Newton} observation of the classical supergiant high-mass X-ray binary XTE J1855026 taken entirely during the eclipse of the neutron star (NS), cov…

Highly structured wind in Vela X-1

I. Kreykenbohm, J. Wilms, P. Kretschmar +6

We present an in-depth analysis of the spectral and temporal behavior of a long almost uninterrupted INTEGRAL observation of Vela X-1 in Nov/Dec 2003. In addition to an already hig…
